Estimator

The Business
This is a well-established national contractor with a strong presence across the regions and a dominant position within the retirement and multi-unit sector.
With a solid forward pipeline across negotiated and competitive work, the Southern region is now looking to strengthen its pre-construction capability with the appointment of an experienced Estimator.

The business operates with regional autonomy, clear accountability, and a leadership team that promotes from within.

The Role
This is a predominantly pre-construction focused position, responsible for managing the full tender lifecycle across the Southern region.
You will:
  • Prepare detailed cost estimates and take-offs
  • Manage subcontractor pricing and scope clarification
  • Lead tender submissions from opportunity through to award
  • Contribute to bid strategy and methodology
  • Work closely with Project Managers and QS's to ensure a clean handover into delivery
  • Support both negotiated and competitive tenders (currently a balanced mix)
This role will initially cover Southern projects, with potential to support overflow work nationally as required.

What We’re Looking For
You’ll ideally bring:
  • Proven commercial estimation experience on multi-unit, retirement, apartments or similar projects
  • Strong take-off capability and cost planning skills
  • Confidence managing full tenders independently
  • Solid subcontractor engagement and market knowledge
  • The ability to balance detail with deadlines
Equally important is cultural alignment; this team values professionalism, collaboration and a genuine “one team” mindset. It’s a growth business, so ambition and ownership matter.

If you’re an Estimator who enjoys owning the front end of projects and wants genuine progression in a growth-focused environment, let’s have a confidential conversation.
